Modeling
Wilson Water Group has developed river and reservoir models representing water uses and operations in basins across Colorado and the Upper Colorado River Basin. We have been involved in developing and updating all the Colorado Decision Support System StateCU and StateMod models. Our extensive knowledge of Colorado water rights allows us to develop models that allocate surface water based on Colorado Water Law resulting in accurate estimates of water availabiliy, stream flows, and reservoir levels. Example projects completed by Wilson Water Group include:
Surface Water Modeling and Investigations
- Surface Water Allocation Modeling: Yampa River (Basin Roundtable support), Eagle River, Blue River, Pine River, Mancos River, and Upper Gunnison River
- Instream Flow Assessment: White River Management Plan, North Platte
- CRSS and CRMMS Riverware Modeling: Colorado River Operations
Colorado Decision Support System
- Model Development: Yampa, White, Upper Colorado, Gunnison, San Juan/Dolores, North Platte, South Platte, and Arkansas River Basins
- CDSS Training
Future Hydrological Conditions Scenario Modeling
- Denver Water Board: Robust Decision-Making Analysis Support
- CRWAS and Technical Update to the Colorado Water Plan
- Upper Colorado River Commission
